Schedule

This year we’re trying something new — in addition to the traditional WordCamp SF at Mission Bay, we’ll be hosting a community summit to bring together contributors to the open source project with the WordPress professionals who are investing in the platform, as well as mini-meetups for the active contributor teams.
